Overall description of capabilities

Timeframe: 2006 to 2013

Provide Title 17 technical consultation to local agencies contending with high-risk areas to support their property lead investigation and remediation activities. Includes developing legal summaries of Title 17 and other applicable lead-related laws and regulations, determining specific violations, and providing written and phone consultations as necessary. IAI developed specialized tools to support these activities including inspection checklist, training and lecture educational materials, and tracking tools for ongoing activities. In conjunction with the state lead program and state legal office, IAI staff also determined the applicable statute(s) and developed a spectrum of proposed corrective actions for local agencies and property to remediate lead hazards.
